Corner of Douglas and 15th Streets , Omaha , Nebraska.
Our new building , in this location , which has been in process of construction for nearly a year past , IS
NOW OPEN TO THE PUBLIC , and we solicit the pleasure of a visit from people of every section
coming to Omaha , and ask that they will inspect our new establishment in all its different
departments.
The building has been constructed from carefully prepared plans by Cloves Bros. , the well known architects of Omaha , and erected by Messrs. Young *
ermann Bros. , builders , also of Omaha. The fixtures and store furniture have all been designed and made by the Omaha Art Furniture Company , and we
now present the entire completed building for the inspection of our friends and the public generally , as being one of the largest , most elegantly lighted ,
and complete in all its appointments of any clothing establishment west of Chicago , without exception.
We also ask the attention of critical buyers to the stock , which is the production of our own factory during the past four months. For this spacf o
time we have given exclusive attention to the manufacturing of a stock of goods for our new Omaha establishment which we confidently believe , in all ( ho
perfection of details that pertain to manufacturing in our line , is unequalled in the United States anywhere. Wo offer the stock now open for examination
on our counters , in all the different departments otf our establishment ( Men's Heady-made department , Boys' and Children's department , Gouts' Furnishing
Goods department , Hat and Cap department , Custom Order department , and AVoolen and Cloth department ) , as the result of mouths of the most diligent
and careful labor on the part of our buyers , in both Domestic and Foreign markets. And wo claim for this collection of goods the merit of being entirely
new in every department : no old goods nor old styles , of any name or nature , being placed in this establishment , and wo ask a careful examination of our
stock , as well as of our store , by all visitors , from whatever section , who come to Omaha.
We do not believe the people of Omaha and vicinity want to buy shoddy or trash , or inferior goods of any description. We have none for sale at any
price. We come to you here , to establish a reputation for honest work , honest goods , honest and fair dealing with all who favor us with their patronage ,
honest representations in regard to fabrics and colors , and as low prices as are named in the United States anywhere , consistent with fair dealing and
reliable goods. Upon this plan we base our expectations of success only. We solicit no trade , except what may be obtained by legitimate business methods ,
and offer equal advantages to every customer that comes to our establishment , no matter whether they are expert judges of the value of goods or not ; every
man , woman and child can buy goods at the Continental Clothing House at exactly the same price. We have but one price to all , and no goods are
shown in our establishment but what are marked in plain figures , so that every customer can judge th price for himself , and wo guarantee the prices nam
ed for all merchandise in our establishment will be as low as can be obtained in the United States , either east or west , for goods of e pial quality and merit.
This guarantee will be one of the fundamental rules of our establishment , and will be strictly adhered to. Any goods bought in our establishment , if not
perfectly satisfactory , after examination at home , can be returned to us , if not worn or soiled , and the purchase money will be cheerfully refunded.

"We have no delay at the transfer. The
